Ever since we announced our closure, we have been moved (often to tears) by the kind words and gestures from you all – I will miss you and this little shop so very much.

The Knit Club opened in 2011, I was 24 and had few expectations – just a lot of hope and a love of knitting. However, 5 years on, we have achieved so much because of your support and we cannot thank you all enough.

We have met some wonderful knitters/crocheters from all over the world, made some amazing friends for life, served countless cups of tea/slices of homemade cake and have spent many hours chatting with you all.

It has been an honour and privilege to be a part of the community in this way.

After the shop closes, I am looking to start the next stage of my life with my
fiancé Charlie (I’ve heard planning a wedding can be a full-time job)!
And I won’t be far from knitting, as I’ll be designing sustainable cashmere knitwear as Lou Dungate – do say hello if you are on Instagram too.

The Knit Club has been the most wonderful adventure, and one that I will never forget. You have all been a huge part of my life and please know that I’ll always feel very proud to have been a small part of yours.

With all my love and gratitude,
Louise x
p.s. My dear mum Yoke would like to say a big thank you from the bottom of heart to everyone for making her smile whenever she was in this little shop!
